Cooling for Athlon 64 x2 3800 + matching RAM
Hi
I currently have an Athlon 64 3200+ retail (fan & heatsink came with it). I have ordered an Athlon x2 3800 (939 pin) and wondering if I will be able to use the same stock fan & heatsink that I'm using with my 3200+ ? I don't do ANY overclocking but occasionally play games etc. Also, will I be able to carry on using my DDR3200 RAM without underclocking the new CPU? (is run it at it's full and proper clock speed) Thanks Dan
